Food Stands near Gardena, CA

“Los mejores tacos de al vapor los recomiendo estos son los mejores de Guadalajara“

“$1.50 taco Tuesday. The red sauce is fiery spicy and delicious. I like that they have the onion and cilantro and sauces in bags/wrapped up so it’s not just sitting out exposed to the environment.

They have 8 plastic chairs so better to pick up and go.

Writing this while waiting for the tacos. Will update re taste“

“Great BBQ food. Chicken, sausage, ribs, sides are good too. Bbq bean I like them. Potato was perfect. Mac cheese I'm not big on it but it was good too. Bbq sauce was a bit on the sour side for me. I like a sweeter taste. Over all my order was worth the price.💯👍 For sure to come again.“

“Delicious …. Great food truck authenticity“

“The best cookies you will find in all of Los Angeles. Creative flavors, quality ingredients, and made by the best people around. Highly recommend“

-the food is excellent (we all had different things, all delicious. + love the salsa/hot sauce/sauce options!)
-The owners are so nice; you’re not just coming here for a great meal, you’re welcomed into a space to enjoy that with a genuine warmth.
Thank you Clemen’s Kitchen!“

“Tamales Naborina is truly a hidden gem a street vendor that has been a staple in Watts for years. It’s the kind of place that’s known by locals, and while it’s somewhat of a well-kept secret, I believe everyone deserves to experience their incredible tamales!

**Location:** You can usually find the bright yellow food truck at the corner of 105th and Wilmington Avenue.

**Service:** The service is impressively quick, especially given the number of customers they serve in the morning. You'll be in and out before you know it!

**Parking:** Keep in mind that parking is limited to street parking, so be prepared to search for a spot and take a short walk to the truck.

**Food:** The tamales here are as authentic as it gets! They use traditional masa with lard and offer a variety of fillings, including red chicken, green chicken, red pork, and cheese tamales. I always opt for their cheese tamales, as they truly do not skimp on the cheese-to-masa ratio, make sure you ask for extra napkins to absorb the grease from the tamales. Don’t forget to grab their green salsa topped with onion and cilantro—it’s a must-have accompaniment and their champurrado is delicious!

On weekends, they also offer banana leaf-wrapped tamales and corn tamales, also known as Uchepos—if you know, you know!

**Overall:** If you’re looking for authentic and delicious tamales, Naborina Tamales is a must-visit. Their offerings are not only tasty but also filling, making it worth the trip!“

“pasamos de pasadita guiados por los reviews y nos sorprendió los mejores tacos de birria qué hemos comido. recomendamos al 100 por 100“

“This is a great example of how LA street mexican food culture is like.

This place has one of the best pastor tacos in LA. Their meats are well seasoned and are not dry. Their salsas have great flavor and heat.

The lines can be long but it is worth the wait. You just can't beat this place when it comes to taste, quality, and price.“

“The food was very good but the service efficiency was very low. I hadn't gone to eat for a while and now that they moved to Calle Paloma, the waitress service was not efficient at all. I spent about 30 minutes waiting for them to take my order and they never did and I better end up leaving.“

“Amazing Food! Great Flavor! Great Place To Eat, Highly Recommended! 🌮🌮🌮🍜“

“We are from Guadalajara Mexico, they are not good…. They are delicious, the tacos las aguas, the quesadillas, this place is one hundred percent recommended to anyone who knows about Mexican tacos, their tacos are better than many places in Mexico, well served and everything they prepare is very delicious. The large roast quesadilla with tripe is a championship, only for connoisseurs... thank you very much for your service, first time I have eaten tacos outside of Mexico, they are delicious...“

“I hired Sierra Guisados (Lucy and fam) to cater my mom’s retirement party this summer and I couldn’t be happier with their service, food, and set-up. They were on time and professional and everything from the beans, rice, salsas, aguas, and tacos was so authentic and delicious. Everyone loved it!

If you are visiting their pop-up arrive early for the vegetarian options 🤤“

“As close as it gets to Mexico City street tacos without eating eating Mexico City street tacos. The staff is friendly and the food is delicious. Our tacos were so flavorful that I forgot to squeeze lime in mine and my husband forgot to put salsa in his. We ended up getting more to go. If we didn’t live all the way on the other side of the US, we would be back for sure. We had the al pastor tacos, queso birria tacos, and consomé.“

“Tire Shop Taqueria is a great place to enjoy flavorful food in a fun and relaxed setting. The restaurant has a cool, casual feel, and it really does feel like a neighborhood spot where people come to enjoy good food without any stress. From the moment you walk up, the smell of grilled meat lets you know you are in for something special.

One of the best items on the menu is the carne asada tacos. The meat is very tender and juicy, and it has a rich, smoky flavor that tastes amazing in every bite. The carne asada is cooked just right and pairs perfectly with the warm tortillas and fresh toppings. These tacos are simple but incredibly delicious.

The grilled al pastor tacos are also a must-try. They are well-seasoned and full of bold flavor without being too heavy. You can really taste the spices, and the grilled edges add a nice texture that makes them even better. Each taco feels carefully made and very satisfying.

The cheesy gringas cooked on the griddle are another highlight. They are crispy on the outside, warm and melty on the inside, and packed with flavor. The cheese stretches with every bite, making them comforting and hard to resist. They are perfect if you want something rich and filling.

The campechanas are very tasty and bring together different meats in one delicious dish. The flavors blend well, creating a hearty and satisfying option. Overall, Tire Shop Taqueria offers amazing food, friendly service, and a relaxed vibe that makes every visit enjoyable and memorable.“

“DELICIOUS,TASTY AMD FLAVORFUL HIGHLY RECOMMEND“

“amazing fresh fruit. large portions for cheap but amazing quality.“

“First time in southern California ( landed in LAX) was driving down to San Diego for a job and really wanted to try some tacos. And found this golden gem on the way. Nice people, amazing tacos ( that remind you of Mexico) highly recommend to try it!“

“This should be a case study or TED talk about how a team can be successful.

This is a very organized, efficient and cool little street taco stand. Everybody there had a great attitude and attention to detail and service for all the customers there.

If we lived here we'd be back regularly.“

“Columbia Heights location is wonderful! Best pupusas ever. The slaw mix and red sauce goes perfectly with them. Always hot and well made💕“

“Corner taco stand. Simple yet delicious. How a true taco should be. Ordered asada & suadero. Both good but Asada was way better. I’m used to the suadero being deep fried in the oil but it seemed it was actually more of a broth. Suadero meat was then seared/ fried on the grill. Still good though but not Mexico City suadero tacos good“

“We had a burrito recommended by the chef and the Birria plate. Both delicious and service was very quick and friendly. Nowhere to sit in the immediate area which isn’t their fault of course. We sat across the street at the shaded bus station and managed just fine :)“

“exelente servicio la comida muy sabrosa😋 aquí encuentra amabilidad y cortecia 😍 🤩“

“The food here is so good, I was a bit skeptical at first but I got the #1 which was 6/5 stars, I also ordered the churro which was the best I’ve ever had and was freshly made, and the water melon aqua Fresca was perfect wasn’t to sweet either. I definitely recommend“

“So I live in Compton, only a few blocks from the birra spot. I'll be honest, I did not like birria de chivo but I came here for Father's Day because my dad who lives in L.A. wanted to try it. Long story short I had no clue what to order. Gentleman at the window was soo helpful and patient in helping me, the señoras are cooking in the truck so we knew it was going to be good. Anyway my dad loved it, and I tried it and I really enjoyed it. Just be careful with parking the lot they are by was full and and I parked on a side street and I totally missed the sign and got a big fat ticket. ??“

“Exelente servicio de buena calidad y su personal muy amable totalmente de acuerdo con su Servicio. 100% Recomendable“

“me encantaron las hamburguesas!“

“i go to college and this food truck was posted just outside my dorm. decided to try it since i’m a big fan of Mexican food and it did not disappoint. Service was super fast even though there was a huge line. the food was absolutely incredible and easily goes in my top 5 best Mexican dishes. i got the perro with no beans and it was amazing. it included a huge homeade flour tortilla, super tender and juicy steak, a whole grilled jalapeño, spicy salsa, guacamole and cilantro and onions. definitely plan on eating here again and would highly recommend if you have the opportunity.“

“(Translated by Google) Rich carnitas tacos, very well served, well filled, the extra a golden tortilla to accompany it.(Original)Ricos tacos de carnitas, muy bien servidos bien llenitos, el extra una tortilla doradita de acompañamiento.

Parking: Es una lonchera, las mesas y sillas están sobre la banqueta por lo tanto el estacionamiento es en la callé, donde se pueda.“

“Been going there for last 10 years Specializes strictly in pork tacos out of home garage only on Saturday and Sunday mornings. Pork skin, pork roast, and buche. All boiled. Ample meat on tacos, also sells in bulk. Go early usually sold out around noon. Best in town.“

“(Translated by Google) These tacos are amazing, very good and well served, they make a load of meat and the dog seasoning. Those with cecina with cheese are the most buts and roast and rib.(Original)Estos tacos están pasados de lanza, muy buenos y bien servidos, le hechan un chingo de carne y el sazon perro. Los de cecina con queso son los más peros y asada y costilla.“

“Some of the best birria in LA hands down, la birria de chivo (goat) is just amazing here. They make tortillas freshly big plus for me. Prices are really good, you pay about $20 for an order that can feed 2-3 people . I am a big guy and love to eat, so its amazing…. You gotta try this spot“
